When a student is granted "conditional admission" to a degree program at Christian Theological Seminary, the student may enroll for a maximum of nine credit hours per semester. Upon the student's completion of nine graded hours, the academic dean will decide whether the student can be fully admitted to the degree program. The student must have maintained a grade-point average of at least 2.3. Work satisfactorily completed during the period of conditional admission automatically applies toward the degree once the academic dean has confirmed full admission status.
